How to Schedule a Wedding Ceremony:
The Municipal Courts performs wedding ceremonies only after you have obtained a valid Texas marriage license.* To get started, please obtain a Marriage License BEFORE scheduling a ceremony at the City of Houston. Failure to obtain your license will result in your ceremony being canceled. Wedding ceremonies are offered in both English and Spanish. Guests are welcome but are limited to a maximum of six (6) guests. Wedding ceremonies are performed Monday – Friday, 1:30 PM– 3:30 PM ($100) and Saturdays 9:00 AM– 12:30 PM ($150) at the Herbert W.
